67

23 days until the
wedding, 20 days until we fly to
Colorado.

Ok, time is ticking away and I’m just swamped at work,
swamped with wedding planning and our house is finally making progress! 

House news ~ Our house is FINALLY making some serious
progress.  We have the interior walls
starting to frame.  They had the initial framework
up over the weekend and did fix the acrylic block window.  It looks awesome now!  You can actually walk into the house and
enter rooms and see how things are laid out. It seems so small but yet I know
just how big it is from the model.  I
cannot wait to move in!  We are very
pleased that they finally have started catching back up on things.  Patricks
parents are coming in July 15th with the furniture they are giving
us so we need to get a storage shed rented and are also going to try to move as
much of our own stuff there prior to the wedding so it’s less hassle when we
get back.  They will also have a key to
drop stuff off at on the way back home. 

Wedding ~ I turned in my wedding planning guide to the lodge
on the 23rd and got all my their details worked out except our final
numbers.  Those are due the 9th
so hopefully I’ll stop receiving straggler RSVP’s and have them all in.   I’m around 80ish people, which is right
where I thought I’d be surprisingly.   I’ve
started emailing vendors regarding details for them and times of arrival but
have a few more kinks to work out yet.  It’s
coming down to last minute details and working on actual little décor type of
things or projects.  Some of which, are
going to be done the few days prior to the wedding with the help of my mom,
maid of honor and a family friend.  I got
my bridesmaids jewelry yesterday and all I can say is WOW!!! I’m so jealous and
should’ve ordered myself something to wear. 
I have yet to get my own jewelry bought and partially because I’m trying
to see how much money I have for all of this. 

 

<>To do list yet:

v    
Book rooms in Puerto Rico
for day before and after cruise( luckily they are still really affordable yet
cause I’ve been slacking on this)

v

off.  Get some made for the bridal party

v

<>I’m sure there is a ton more to do
that I’m forgetting but a horrible storm is coming through and I need to upload
this before I get some fun power surge and wipe it out. Hehe

 Damn my cool bullets didn’t work, oh well!

    Know what sweetie? Don’t get overwhelmed… at the end of the day on the 23rd, the only thing that truly matters is that you and Patrick end up married. If that is achieved, all else is bonus. *hugs*

    Do not get your girls wear a plain white bridesmaid dress on stage in order to avoid distracting.
